Re: Axe Carry

A Shepard's Axe! Combine a small axe head with your walking staff. Now you get a great tool for taking down hard to reach limbs, and a weapon with a longer reach. Now, a long handle isn't the most effective when it comes to chopping firewood, but it could be done with a removable tomahawk style hea...

Re: Axe Carry

Are you familiar with scout style knife sheaths Tom? Maybe you could come up with a similar way to carry your handaxe in the small of your back horizontally so that if you were to slip and fall on your back, your pack will be what makes contact with the ground and not your axe. It does seem though t...

Re: Non-fantasy rangers, other hobbies?

Ah you must be really close to me then, if you're looking for Red Wolves. I know there's about 50 alive today, and my wife spotted one a few year ago, near Dahlonega. The areas i haunt are actually in East Texas, the last time i heard an "official" number thrown out there was only 15 to 1...

Re: Non-fantasy rangers, other hobbies?

Sure, I hike, camp, hunt, I scout public land during the off season, and I enjoy bushcrafting. I also do amateur field research and experiments as part of a citizen scientist project in my area collecting data on creatures that are thought to be extinct or extirpated like red wolves, "panthers&...

I've used the wiki but I found it through the forum first.
I only found the forum through Iodo's YouTube channel (which I in turn only found by accident looking for DIY rain gear ideas lol )

Re: A few white tails

Re: Leather Wrap Gaunlets.

No, not me. He was testing out some gear during covid when cons and LARP's were banned. When I first heard about it it seemed like a funny scenario (and it kind of is) but honestly it was no joke. The police had pointed loaded weapons at him and said "put the sword on the floor" and he ha...

Re: Thoughts on Dwarven meat and cuisine?

On the subject of dwarven beef, I cant help but picture highland cattle as the perfect breed for dwarves to keep. Their long wooly coats and ability to sustain themselves on marginal pasture would make them right at home grazing the sides of whatever mountain the dwarves choose to call home. https:/...
